2014 Hyundai Elantra - Okay car

For the most part this car has been reliable. However, I have had a few issues. All four tires blew out or shredded within six months of having the car. Now I have had the car about two and a half years, and the battery died a few weeks ago and had to be replaced. I am also having trouble with the air conditioner. For some reason when I turn my car on, it will take two–three minutes for the air to get cool, which is very unfortunate in the hot, Texas summer heat. Other than these issues, I do like the car. It drives nice and smooth and is very spacious. I like that it connects to my phone through Bluetooth. The sound system in the car is excellent. The build and the interior of the car has held up very well so far. I love the look of the car itself, and the gas mileage is the best I've... (more)

My husband and I go to Ikea a lot, and we always take my car because the trunk and the trunk pass through are great for fitting the new furniture pieces and boxes.

Story

This car is great for road trips, because it is so spacious. My husband and I love to travel, so we usually take my car when we go places.

The tires the car came with were very unreliable. The battery died after two years. The air conditioner is malfunctioning. Not ideal (too small) for a family car.

2012 Hyundai Elantra - Second Elantra, love it that much

This is my second Elantra. I recently purchased this vehicle after my 2010 Elantra was totaled in an accident. I had no complaints about my car and wanted to simplify the buying purchase, so I decided to stick with what I know. The performance is excellent. The car has great acceleration when getting on and off highways, and I never have problems with the car hesitating if I need to accelerate quickly to switch lanes. The car is spacious and roomy and has plenty of cargo space for everyday running around.

Story

When I was shopping for my car, this was the only one in the DFW area that was the color I wanted - the sky blue.

Pros

Fuel economy is excellent
Car is spacious inside, adults can sit comfortably in the backseat
Controls are easy to access and intuitive to figure out without having to read the manual
Sound system is great, Bluetooth audio works good with excellent sound quality
Rear console with cup holders can be pulled down - excellent as a divider between children

Cons

Cabin noise. I was disappointed that the newer Elantra sacrificed the quiet cabin for exterior style. It would have been great to have the updated body, and still maintain the inside cabin quiet. When doing over 65 on a highway, it is very loud.
Seatbelt adjustment is still too high for me, at 5'4 stature, resulting in the seat belt constantly cutting into my neck while driving.
Not as many compartments as the 2010 - the dashboard compartment was eliminated, as was the center compartment by the cupholders.

I have bought 2 different new cars with this dealership. I am a women but I was not made to feel inadequate or incapable of purchasing a vehicle on my own. These people are respectful and dignified. I appreciate these qualities. Not all dealerships were as professional. I will not go to another dealership, they have made a customer for life.

They were very friendly yet professional. The person who we test drove with answered even our dumb questions. While waiting to sign papers they offered refreshments which was nice. While going over the final details they were very thorough in explaining everything. He even drew us a graph at one point when we had a question.
